It's Been So Long!

Wow I've been so neglectful of this blog that it took me twenty minutes to even figure out how to log back in! I've been busy and not busy ever since The Seagull ended. The end of a show brings on super-strong feelings of depression and loserdom, especially when the next few auditions you go on turn to shit and you spend your too much free time laying on the couch like a sad slug.

I was lucky enough to be in a great little show called "An Inspector Calls" in October, but it has now ended as well and I am back to said slug status. Here's a few pics :)

Behind the Scenes of The Seagull

Yesterday was our sneak preview behind the scenes look at our rehearsals for The Seagull. I had to work until 4pm so by the time I got to the location there was already a crowd of people milling around. We performed two scenes and then had wine and cheese and chatted with the guests. It was fun and I was so happy to have Brandon and Cristina there. Nervous but happy.

Check out the blog set up to capture each day of rehearsal:

i think these will work!! finally. much thanks to Natalia Kutsepova for her patience with my annoying ass :)

do you wanna see me cry?

Now, now woman
sweet, sweet child
little baby,
the black, black night
will famously make of every little thing one

Look here lady,
do you want to see me cry
out your lovin' or a little suicide
is all that's left to me.
the daylight's pounding my eardrums

So now I make my stand,
my pride in hand
my lonely love

Swing low May Flower
hear my pearls
listen, honey
to your little hummingbird
very carefully
for he may not sing it more than once.

Love you, baby
like mariners love the sea.
when I go to Heaven,
I swear you will go with me.

I've seen it vividly,
daydreaming in the sun
but make no mistake,
I'm now awake
my lonely love
my lonely love

Midnight, midnight in the cat's eyes
and to the devil the chicken spirit flies.
finally, not so unlike the dove
the hours last stand is in your hands
my lonely love
my lonely love
my lonely love

Proof

this is one of my favorite scenes from the play, brought to life so perfectly in the film...
